It has been proven that what surrounds you, inspires and motivates you.  Did you know  your décor is a MAJOR surrounding influence on your state of mind and creativity? Yep- it sure is!  This is how we style with intention everyday.

In this episode of Style Soul Podcast, discover how to stage your bathroom like a pro in ten easy and simple ways!

Do you have a favorite place in your home? What I’m about to tell you is very surprising. There’s a room in the home that people tell me it’s their absolute favorite!

Most people tell me their favorite place is the bathroom. It’s the place they get ready for in the morning and relax in with a bubble bath and glass of wine in the evening.

If you are staging your home to sell, you do not want to ignore the bathroom! In fact, I suggest really energizing this space to connect with potential buyers. It’s simple to do and the results are amazing!

You want to create the picture for them so they can envision themselves here. Have fun with it!

When staging your bathroom create a spa- like atmosphere with candles, bath salts- the works! Or even better- set an empty wine glass next to a book by the bath tub. What kind of wine is filled is the buyer’s choice 😉 – Be creative!
